Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Anthony Frank]

If Oswald killed Tippit, it was on orders from his CIA handlers. Oswald was a totally controlled CIA asset.

If he did not kill Tippit, it was the CIA that killed Tippit, after which they gave the gun to Oswald and told him to wait for them in the Dallas theater.

President Ford’s “Commission on CIA Activities in the United States” reported, “Police cover in the form of badges and other identification has, on several occasions, been obtained from local police departments.”

The CIA had no problem working with the Dallas Police to go after Oswald and arrange for his murder at the hands of Jack Ruby two days later.

Killing President Kennedy was part of the CIA’s quest to control the government, and I have it all documented. Click the link.

It's mystifying.  The evidentiary case against Oswald is very strong and straightforward.  Absent a time machine, it is difficult to understand how we could have much more evidence than exists.  Almost equally compelling is the improbable nature of any alternative narrative - including everything that would have to have happened - for Oswald to be innocent or some Gomer Pyle-type patsy.     

So what is the explanation for this pedantic endless defense of Oswald:

1) Bias.  A conspiracy behind the JFK assassination comports with a world view that important events are always controlled by some nefarious entity.  So the CIA, FBI, WC, or LBJ is behind everything.  In fact, the conspiracy itself becomes necessary to explain why they can never make a case for proving Oswald's innocence.  Some powerful force precludes it.  An endless loop.  Similar to UFO believers.  They can never be dissuaded from this belief because their inability to make the case for Oswald's innocence is deemed further proof of a conspiracy.

2) Compulsion disorder.  Many CTers appear to share a common trait.  They are obsessed with minutia.  They literally can't see the forest for the trees.  Long rambling posts that have disconnected points that never add up to anything.  They can't filter information into knowledge.  Thus, they become overwhelmed by detail and conclude "something" must have happened.  What they can't quite articulate but something must have happened because a lot of small details can't be explained to their subjective satisfaction.

3) Mental illness.  Some CTers appear to have actual mental issues.  If they believe even half of the nonsense that they espouse, they are suffering from delusions and paranoia.  Outside of an Internet forum with many like minded folks, these people would be put in a straight jacket for some of their nutty theories.  There are serious minded CTers who use evidence in an attempt to make their case, but they are a definite minority.  Oddly, intelligence is not a mitigating factor.  In fact, there some very intelligent CTers who are off their rocker.

4)  Attention.  It's easy to play the contrarian and gain attention.  Ironically, not much different from Oswald himself who played the outsider to garner attention.  So they take issue with every point - no matter how obvious - that lends itself to Oswald's guilt ("Oswald's rifle - LOL").  Repeat endlessly.  I suppose it passes the time like other hobbies.  Whether these folks believe their own nonsense is unclear.  Perhaps they get so caught up in trying to conjure up doubt that they come to believe it.

[Bill Brown]

Helen Markham, Barbara Davis, Virginia Davis, William Scoggins, Sam Guinyard and Ted Callaway all attended a police lineup and positively identified Lee Oswald as the man they saw either shoot J.D. Tippit or run from the immediate scene with a gun in his hands. Not one witness who attended a lineup identified someone other than Oswald as the man they saw.

[Bill Brown]

Four men located at the Johnny Reynolds Motor Company located one block south of the Tippit shooting scene heard the shots and looked up the street. Warren Reynolds, Pat Patterson and Harold Russell positively identified Lee Oswald as the man they saw running south on Patton to Jefferson with a gun in his hands. One man, L.J. Lewis, failed to identify Oswald as the man he saw but Lewis also did NOT say that the man was not Oswald; only that he couldn't be sure either way.

[Bill Brown]

Jimmy Burt and Bill Smith were out in the front yard of the house on the corner of Tenth and Denver (one block east of Tenth and Patton). They heard the shots, looked west along Tenth and saw the killer run from the scene. These two men were interviewed by the FBI and neither could positively identify Lee Oswald as the killer. However, neither man stated that Oswald was NOT the man they saw.

[Bill Brown]

Domingo Benavides was the closest witness to the shooting. He heard the shots and ducked down in his pickup truck. He saw the killer but told the Dallas Police that he felt he didn't get a good enough look at the killer to make an identification. Benavides could not state that the killer was Oswald and he could not state that the killer was NOT Oswald.

[Bill Brown]

Add up these above witnesses. Thirteen witnesses to the shooting and/or the killer fleeing. Nine of the witnesses positively identified Lee Oswald. Four of the witnesses could not make a determination one way or the other. But ZERO of the thirteen witnesses told the authorities that the man was NOT Oswald.

Richard addressing other people's mental health...

I don't think Richard composed those quips.... He must have plagiarized somebody more witty and also more insulting than he. When it suits their purpose...the Oswald did it people will state that eye witnesses can be in error. I place myself in the micro-minority of skeptics who still fail to understand how someone can appear within a 10-15 minute time frame from a rooming house approx one mile away to an unexplained location and for no further explained reason gun down a policeman. That's all.
